I stupidly bought $1k of some stupid coin called BONK per some people on this board. I bought it at .000025 per coin and now it's down to .000012, so cut in half. I'm guessing I should abandon ship, but does anyone know if this dumb coin has any actual utility or future?

This is why I don't do crypto
BONK is a speculative coin that may jump at some point. If that is your first foray into crypto then you’re way off track. I own some too knowing full well that chances of making big bucks off it is just a bit more likely than hitting on a lottery ticket. I wouldn’t sell if I were you. Wait for the next rally before you decide

I took a little off the table when it hit .00005 but still hold the majority of it. It can erase that loss in a 1-2 day span when it runs

I’ve posted links from him before, but this guy is an amazing follow. The “Hyperliquid Whale” has been crypto’s main character for the last few weeks. As much as people think they can hide behind anonymous crypto transactions, it always traces back somewhere…

Documenting this here for future reference…with each passing offering, the likelihood that Saylor is a future black swan increases.

By the way, looks like staking rewards will be added to ETH ETFs soon. Also the SOL ETF with staking is on track to be approved soon. Any thoughts on what the rewards will be?

Solana validators are offering between 7-8% right now. Coinbase has it at 5%. Somewhere between those two is a good estimate

I need to see a Netflix doc about this. Almost $1B of Bitcoin by today’s prices. Might be $1T someday. I wonder how often he does the math to figure out how much he lost.

This is why I’m very comfortable with Fidelity holding my BTC. I trust them more than me!

ETH finally $4K+. Room to run to new ATHs?
Though I will continue to say it’s useless, ETH pumping is good for alts and memes so I’ll take it.

Total crypto market cap approaching $4T. This was at 2.28T in November and I said a run to $3-4T this year would be easy, which drew some doubters here. Called for $100-150k bitcoin this year in the same exchange. $123 doesn’t feel like a job well done, hoping to see $140 as a nice round 2x from last cycle’s high.

Found a use for ETH! Putting my daughter through college. :)
